85. What?

I'm not sure what you're talking about unless you misinterpreted my comments.

Have you seen any posts from new members that didn't get a bunch of replies similar to "cool story, bro" or "I don't believe you"? Hell, even people talking about website glitches were getting this, even though the administration was admitting that the website had glitches.

What I'm saying is this. If a person posts something that suggests they aren't happy with insurance changes, prices or the ACA web interface, and their post count is a relatively low number, it won't matter if their statement amounts to "water is wet", they'll be accused of trolling.

At least if you've been around the DU long enough, you'll instead get accused of other things.
